Tim has a new girlfriend. It should be the perfect romance, but something is holding him back. He has a dark secret ... his parents are entertainers.

Brenda Blethyn delivers a tour-de-force performance as a once-hot comic talent in England who fell in love with a one-hit country western singer. Now the survivor of a disastrous marriage, ex-wife of a security guard still trying for another hit single and the mother of two teenaged boys about to find their own ways in the world, she scratches out a living in Australia doing one-night standup gigs. Then her son falls in love, and what had never been a stable home environment before becomes a combat zone in a moving and hilarious battle for a teenager's affection.

Every once in a while, a love story comes along that defies expectations...
